Corporate Rich!!! Bill IS getting carried away. This sounds like an exciting endeavor for your guys. I'm sure it'll be a success for you. Now go put that suit on.
John - This is a way to take our auction business to the next level today and create a venue to provide personal (consumer) level assistance to our corporate clients.
Bryant - Very exciting, but I wear the suit less and less these days. Unless I'm in court, which happens weekly, I'm happiest in the flip flops.
A lighthearted and informative look at the real estate and asset sale professions. The Gryphon Organization provides real estate, auction and asset management services through a variety of subsidiaries including Gryphon Asset Management and United Country Ohio Realty & Auction Group.
